Only negative is shower over the bath - not so good when you are over 70!

Lovely coffee and milk provided. Great condo. Highlight was talking to “only Darryl” and I want to come back for a month because Wanaka was so great.

Property is a little dated, but in a prime location and very walkable to everything in town. The balcony was great and the view was unbeatable.There is a dedicated parking spot for each room and additional parking on the street if needed. The only downside for us was the staff barely acknowledged us at check in or check out and were just very aloof.
